Gave the scheduled mathematics class for Class 8B on the topics Trapezium and Parallelogram, focusing on basic concepts and properties. Handled substitution classes in Class 6G and attended the High School Parents’ Meeting, which helped in understanding students’ overall academic progress through parent–teacher interaction.

Day 30 – 21/01/2026

Handled the regular mathematics class in Class 8B and completed the teaching of Trapezium and Parallelogram. The important properties and differences were revised, and revision notes were provided to help students prepare effectively for assessment.

Day 31 – 22/01/2026

Conducted the achievement test for Class 8B to assess students’ understanding of the taught topics. Collected the lesson plan signature from the Headmaster.

WEEKLY REFLECTION- 6

 Day 24 – 12/01/2026

The first day of Phase 2, Spell 2 began on a positive note. Introduced the balance portion of the chapter Parallelogram and initiated classroom discussion to connect it with previously learned concepts. On this day, the collection of project data was also started to study the effect of Exit Tickets on students’ understanding. Handled multiple substitution classes in different standards, which helped in gaining experience in teaching younger learners and managing classrooms of varying age groups effectively.

Day 25 – 13/01/2026
Handled regular and substitution classes and continued teaching the properties of Trapezium and Parallelogram using simple examples and interactive questioning. Assisted in duties related to the DEO meeting and also performed midday meal serving duty. Teaching students of different classes helped in developing adaptability and understanding the administrative responsibilities of a teacher.

Day 26 – 14/01/2026
Managed both substitution and scheduled classes during the conduct of the Model IT Examination for Class 10. Continued teaching problems related to Parallelogram and Trapezium and ensured a disciplined and engaging classroom atmosphere throughout the sessions.

15/01/2026 – Public Holiday – Pongal

Day 27 – 16/01/2026
Handled multiple substitution classes and conducted an arithmetic skill test as part of the project work to assess students’ prior knowledge. Participated in midday meal duty and observed Eco Club activities, which provided insight into the role of teachers beyond classroom teaching.

COGNITIVE MAP

This cognitive map was designed as part of my B.Ed. work to visually organize and connect key concepts from Straight Lines (Plus One Mathematics – NCERT) and Vector Algebra (Plus Two Mathematics). The map places the core ideas at the center and branches out to related formulas, properties, and applications such as slope, distance, section formula, angle between lines, and vector operations. By using colors, shapes, and directional links, the map highlights relationships between concepts, making abstract ideas more structured and easier to recall. Overall, it serves as an effective learning and teaching aid that promotes conceptual clarity, logical thinking, and meaningful learning in mathematics.
